Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, has described the
chairmanship of Senator Ali Modu
Sheriff, in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
as a mistake. Fayose, who noted: “I take responsibility for that?
I will not be in the forefront again to carry
responsibility for any man” but pointed
out that “he will first seek the face of God to choose the right man for the
people.”
Fayose, made the remarks at the weekend , in his speech
while commenting on the chairmanship tour of Dr. Raymond Dopespi, to Ekiti
State at the Jibowu Hall, Government House.
He said the PDP in Ekiti is deeply concern on the current
situation of the party right now, saying the party has broken into factions
because everybody wants to be masters in the party.
Fayose, who condemned those going to court to express their
grievances on party matters, also
condemned those who are paying lip services to the party.
He pointed out that the “dry bones of the PDP will rise
again”, saying “God will give the PDP a new leader that will reposition the party
to progress in the country.
Fayose said: “In Ekiti, we have no anointed candidate; we
would come to Port Harcourt with open mind and let God do justice” In his speech, while soliciting for support in Ekiti, the
PDP chairmanship aspirant, Dokpesi, pleaded with the stakeholders to allow him
to serve the party.
According to him, he is a leader, a transformer and a bridge
builder, who will promote, protect and project the PDP by bringing freshness
into the party.
Dokpesi said the APC since the last general election has not
allowed the PDP leaders to rest, he urged the PDP to stand and defend the
democracy in the country.
“The leader who believed in the people, that is the leader
we need in our democracy.”
He later debunked the insinuation that he had step-down for
Chief Bode George. I am still in the
race, at no time have I step down for Chief Bode George. We need fresh blood to run the PDP. I will stand by you and defend the PDP.
The PDP chairman in Ekiti, Gboyega Oguntuase, appreciates
the aspirant adding that God would support his ambition.
Dokpesi’s tour of Ekiti, is the 17 states he has visited by
road and last in the southern part of the country.
